1923 Grace S. Putnam Bye Lo Baby doll, recognized for its bisque head with closed mouth and blue sleep eyes. The doll showcases a cloth body and celluloid hands, true to the period's style and craftsmanship. The back of the doll's neck is marked with the original 1923 copyright, attesting to its authenticity. Included are paired clothing items: a cotton christening gown, an embroidered dress trimmed with blue, a cotton undergarment, and a pair of knit socks. Some staining and wear are present on the body and clothing, consistent with age and use, but the distinctive hand-painted features and original construction remain intact. Approximately 12.5 inches. **SHIPPING NOT RECOMMENDED Shipping is not recommended for this doll due to the extremely delicate sleep eye mechanism. The internal eye assembly cannot be properly secured for safe transit without compromising the structural integrity of the doll. While we take great care in packaging every item, we cannot ensure the safe arrival of this doll through standard shipping methods. Bidders who require shipping are strongly encouraged to reconsider purchasing this item. If a buyer chooses to have the doll shipped despite this recommendation, they do so entirely at their own risk. The seller and auction company assume no responsibility or liability for any damage that may occur during transit or upon arrival at its destination.
